He enjoyed his work with General Electric, working for them for 6 years. He was also a member of Judah Tabernacle Church. Shaun’s passions in his life were his family, cooking and gardening. He loved to entertain friends and family and no one ever left his home hungry. He was a great cook, Lasagna being his specialty. Shaun had a real talent in working with plants, spending his life in yards landscaping or within the walls of greenhouses. He started a landscaping business, Hills Lawn Tech, with his brother Chris and his son Hamilton. His son Hamilton and his wife carry on the business.
